Literacy
Weekly ideas...
Letter of the week - R and S -
Read a book.
Create your own letter bag. If you can't find a "fancy" bag just grab a grocery bag and fill it with items that start with the letter "R and S". Go through the bag with your child and write them down on paper and draw a quick sketch of that item. Pass the bag around to other family members and see if they can add to it.
Pick 5 sight words to focus on all week. Paint them, write them with sidewalk chalk, use markers and write them rainbow... Print them on a card and tape them to your wall, turn out the lights and find them with a flashlight.
Writing prompts - (don't forget to draw a picture to go with it)
Write about your family.
Write about your summer plans.
What do you want to be when you grow up? Tell me about it.
Dictation - provide your child with a piece of paper and dictate the following words to them. They are spelling these words phonetically so if they write "kap" instead of "cap" that is fine.
dug challenging words: smash
mix wing
fed bench
bin drop
pop stamp
bus crust
gas from
fix golf
